Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Trouble with 20-bit flacs on piCorePlayer 8.2.0

2022-11-04 Thread zordaz


I have checked and all my HDCD-decoded files seems to be 24bit and play
well. What tool did you use to convert your HDCD audio to 20bit?

I don't recall having issues with HDCD-decoded flac files on my
piCorePlayers and SB Radio's. I think most of them are decoded to 24 bit
(not 20), but I'll have to check. Quite some CD's in my collection which
are labelled as HDCD doesn't make use of any of the features btw, I only
decoded the ones which makes use of Low Range/Peak Extension or Gain
adjustments.

Indeed. Long story short: MQA is a lossy, proprietary technology which
is not supported by LMS. To say that MQA is controversial is an
understatement, but let's not open that can of worms over here. For
proper lossless streaming you should consider alternatives like Qobuz.

If you are not using LMS of piCorePlayer the easiest and quickest way
after a crash is to just do a full/clean reinstall and reconfig your pCP
config manually, assuming that you don't have adjusted the config too
much in the past.
pCP runs completely into memory if you do playback only.

I already posted an issue at Github / Squeezelite in September, I think

Exactly the same audible glitches with the SLX & Primary Sound Driver &
Ogg/Vorbis playback. I am not surprised to be honest, based upon my
earlier testing I don't think drivers are causing this.

I discovered the glitches in May/June 2021 and all Squeezelite-X
versions/updates I used since that date.
I only use default output settings, both on Squeezelite-X and all
piCorePlayer versions (and Hifiberry OS) I tested with. I can probably
compare the (default) Squeezelite-X output settings with piCorePlayer,
but I don't think it is the right direction in search for the root cause
however. 

(I can provide example files I useful).

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 8.0.0

2022-01-08 Thread zordaz


A few months ago I discovered that gapless playback of Ogg/Vorbis files
was not working flawlessly in piCorePlayer. The playback is gapless, but
during the transition to the new track a small glitch is audible. I
started a separate thread about it on this forum, but that remained
silent unfortunately. In the meantime I have done a fair amount of extra
testing and I hope this thread is a better place in search for a
solution.

Test hardware: RPI2 + HifiBerry DAC.
LMS: 8.2.0

I have tested the playback with several piCorePlayer versions and other
software:
- piCorePlayer 8.x, 7 and 6 all give audible glitches
- piCoreplayer 5 plays flawlessly
- Squeezelite-X gives audible glitches
- HifiberryOS & Squeezelize version 20211105 plays flawlessly
- Foobar2000 plays flawlessly

Of course the source files were 100% fine, ripped securely and 100%
gapless.
I also transcoded the Ogg/Vorbis files back to Wav and Flac, and *all
those transcoded files play flawlessly on all tested versions of
piCorePlayer and Squeezelite-X!
*
Although the glitches during gapless playback of Ogg/Vorbis are small
and often only audible when transitions are rather quiet, there should
be none because Ogg/Vorbis supports gapless playback by design.

It might be related to Squeezelite, but I am not sure because of the
fact that HifiBerryOS & Squeezelite works fine. And I am also curious
why piCoreplayer 5 works fine, something must have changed in later
versions.

What can be tested more to find the root cause of this issue?

I know that you can change it manually and will do, but like I said: IMO

Same here, I am blocking Google DNS because several devices (like
Chromecasts) are using hard coded Google DNS. Now I understand why I had
issues with the update mechanism! 
I think the default in piCorePlayer should be changed to a more neutral
and a more privacy respecting DNS than Google, there are plenty of
options.

This is probably not a persistent solution as containers are disposable
and will be recreated after an update: if you need a persistent solution
the underlying image needs alsa-utils added.
In the world of containers/Docker you should not manually change the
container.

There must be several LMS images 'out there'. Does anyone have a recent

My entire docker setup and management is done via docker-compose, as can

At last I was able to find time for some additional testing with
LMS7.9.3 in a container. I can confirm that scan/rescan works fine and
that it is possible to map more than one directory from the host to the
LMS container. Also Spotty, Material Skin and MAI works fine here. There
were some plugin updates which were downloaded without issues.

I think we can conclude that it is more or less ready for prime time ;-)

I know some other LMS images exist, does anyone know about the
differences?
Looking to the image itself (not the container) it would be nice if it
is possible to make it smaller, but I'm not a specialist on this
subject.
My next focus will therfore be the persistent storage via a Docker
volume instead of mappings to the host.

I agree that Docker Volumes are the preferred way for persistent data in

I am using Docker via WSL2 & Windows, and also have Docker on several
linux systems.
On Win10 my current docker-compose for LMS is:


Code:

  logitech-media-server:
  container_name: lms
  #image: doliana/logitech-media-server:latest-7.9.2
  #image: doliana/logitech-media-server:latest-8.0
  image: doliana/logitech-media-server:latest-SetProperVersions-7.9.3
  restart: unless-stopped
  ports:
  - "9000:9000"
  - "9090:9090"
  - "3483:3483"
  - "3483:3483/udp"
  volumes:
  # folder where lms stores its data (cache, logs, prefs)
  - ./lms_storage:/srv/squeezebox
  # folder where lms should look for music
  - /mnt/c/data/lms-music:/srv/music
  environment:
  # use time of host
  - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
  # use timezone of host
  - TZ=${TZ}



The main difference is in the volumes/mappings, I am using mount points
instead of drive letters. It seems to me that you have to look into that
first.

So far host based networking wasn't neccessary for my use cases with LMS
& Docker. Do you have examples where it is really needed? Imho host
based networking is never the first choice in te container world.

Well, I can confirm 7.9.3 starts fine and is able to scan a local musc
library. I will test with several plugins enabled later.
I have used the same docker-compose file as earlier mentioned in this
thread, albeit on a different host (Win10pro instead of Xubuntu 20.04).
LMS runs in its own (docker) network.

This is the part I would like to test and understand myself as well.
What I expect is that this is already achieved or can be achieved via

I know, my reaction was from Docker perspective however. 
As 7.9.3 is released now, let's optimize the Docker image for it. So no
'Docker' effort in a LMS 7.9.4 image as long as there is no released
version. 
As almost all work is now focussed on LMS 8.0 that should be the only
place toe be for continiously produced new Docker images IMHO.

I will do some additional testing of the x64 images when I'm back from

7.9.3 is indeed a development branch, but bug fix only as far as I know.
Development of new features has moved to the 8.0 branch.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] 'Official' docker container for LMS?

2020-07-27 Thread zordaz


I have done my first testing with x64 via docker-compose.
I was successfully able to pull the 7.9.2 and 8.0 images, both 7.7.6 and
7.9.3 gave a 'manifest unknown' error. This must me something with the
image-syntax/label in my compose file.

The following tests on the 7.9.2 and 8.0 containers went fine, with the
same, existing settings:
- Create, scan and play music from a (docker-test) local library: mp3,
ogg, flac
- Config and play music via Spotty
- Play several internet radio stations
- Switch an existing player from my main music library to the
'docker-test- library

I had a few hassles with port 9000 and LMS, because my docker-management
tool Portainer by default also uses 9000. First I tried to remap LMS to
another port, but then the local music library wasn't accessible for
other players. In the end I remapped Portainer to something else, so LMS
could run on 9000.

Below my docker-compose:


Code:

logitech-media-server:
  container_name: lms
  #image: doliana/logitech-media-server:latest-7.9.2
  image: doliana/logitech-media-server:latest-8.0
  restart: unless-stopped
  ports:
  - "9000:9000"
  - "9090:9090"
  - "3483:3483"
  - "3483:3483/udp"
  volumes:
  # folder where lms stores its data (cache, logs, prefs)
  - ./lms_storage:/srv/squeezebox
  # folder where lms should look for music
  - /data/lms-music:/srv/music
  environment:
  # use time of host
  - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
  # use timezone of host
  - TZ=${TZ} 
  



As you can see I use an environment variable (.env file) for the
timezone. What is the purpose of the localtime mapping, it seems double
to me.

I think I am able to test the x64 versions. Although still somewhat in
the Docker learning curve, I already have several other containers
running via Docker-compose. I have to read through this thread and
Github first, especially to understand the way the persistent parts of a
LMS system are stored (via official Docker volumes? Via mappings?), so
it might take some time before I can report my findings.

This is indeed possible, but on a regular Ubuntu/Debian installation you
might run into hassles with the ownership of the sound device when
running Squeezelite, especially when more users are active on the
system. Even the Pulseaudio version of Squeezelite is in that use case
not always straight forward.

Please provide some more info on your system, so we can help.

The RPI route is of course also a good option, but looking to you
current situation I was wondering where your music collection is stored
then? I didn't took that into account in my first response. This
collection can easily be put on another disc of course, that is just a
config option LMS.

Btw:
I am running LMS on self installed Linux systems for 10 years now
(Debian Stable and Xubuntu LTS) and also experimented with a separated
/var plus different locations for my music collection. It is all
possible, but in the end the defaults are usually the easiest for
maintenance and trouble shooting purposes.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] install lms on linux

2020-04-17 Thread zordaz


This is of course possible, but requires some basic linux skills.
My first question is: what do you mean by 'boot disk'? Is this the disk
where your entire linux system is installed?
And is LMS installed via a deb-package?

The basic installation of LMS is not that big, but the database +
artwork etc. can grow hefty. Those data is stored in /var.
So the most pragmatic solution in your use case is probably to create a
separate partition on a different disc for entire /var. 
You need to create a mount point as well of course. The exact steps
depends on your specific installation, but I think several
examples/tutorials can be found on the internet quite easy.

Assuming it is indeed the same issue as I reported last week: 
After saving the configuration, the right DAC will only by visible in

something else in Beta mode.
This will not affect the playing capabilities.

Just did a fresh install of version 5.0.0 on one of my two standard
HifiBerry DAC+ players. 
It took me a while to find my HifiBerry card in de drop down menu
however.

Is it intentional that you need to enter the GUI beta mode to be able to
select the appropriate HifiBerry card?
IMHO this is confusing.

As Ubuntu 14.04 LTS is almost EOL, there is usually plenty of reason to
upgrade your OS to a newer LTS-version of Ubuntu, but I am not familiar
with your exact use cases. For both the OS upgrade and an LMS update no
removal/reinstall is needed, just perform the appropriate update
procedures.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Xubuntu 14.04 & startup sequence of LMS

2018-02-02 Thread zordaz

Fiddling with links in /etc/rc?.d doesn't work, already tried that long
ago. I will look into LSB tags and systemd unit files when I have some
spare time for it, but that route feels like a manual workaround.

I still think this should be solved within the default config and
packaging of LMS. I will of course post my findings here.

The problem also was there when Upstart was the standard in Ubuntu. On
my former system (Debian with classic sysvinit) it worked OK.
LMS and Xubuntu are running with default configs here, so this seems
more like a bug or missing feature than a config error.
Do you have a suggestion were to look in more detail?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Xubuntu 14.04 & startup sequence of LMS

2017-12-12 Thread zordaz

Yes, this is an old one but...

Today I decided to test if it was possible to remove the Q
/etc/rc.local workaround command, because I am running Ubuntu 16.04 now
with systemd and LMS 7.9.x
The test was unsuccessful, the /etc/rc.local workaround is still needed
when running LMS on a system where the network is started later than
LMS.
I have not tweaked with the systemd-config or whatsoever, it is running
with default Ubuntu settings.

I can't believe I am still the only one over here having this problem. I
am still interested in a structural solution or nicer workaround!

The latest FFmpeg version (3.1) has a HDCD filter built in, which is
based on the on the Foobar2000 HDCD component code:
http://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=High_Definition_Compatible_Digital

Is there any chance this FFmpeg version will end up in Ralphy's FFmpeg

I know Morituri, but the last time I checked it it was a CLI tool and
that is not what I prefer for ripping.

I use Exact Audio Copy via Wine for ripping and Easytag and Kid3-qt for
tagging.

In the past I used Rubyripper and and good old grip/cdparanoia
sometimes, but I really miss the secure rip functions of EAC in those
programs.

Are you using plugins like Adblock or Ghostery?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Xubuntu 14.04 startup sequence of LMS

2015-05-12 Thread zordaz

After a few months of experience with the solution above, I have to
resurrect this post :p

In the end the boot sequence tweak only solved part of the problem:
Internet Radio indeed worked fine this way, but Triode's Spotify plugin
didn't. After a regular reboot or startup of the system Logitech Media
Server still needed a manual restart before Spotify worked.
So I'm back to the /etc/rc.local workaround.

The issue must have something to do with the combination of:
- Startup sequence of several services / processes of the system: the
network by default is started AFTER Logitech Media Server.
- The startup scrips of Logitech Media Server.
- Upstart compatibility (in the future: Systemd).
- Network Manager

Question: Is there a more elegant solution possible than /etc/rc.local? 

In the end I still think a more fundamental change in the startup
scripts of Logitech Media Server is needed for Debian/Ubuntu based
systems.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Xubuntu 14.04 startup sequence of LMS

2014-10-03 Thread zordaz

Tnx. Fiddling around with the Boot Up Manager did the trick; I changed
the start / stop priority of LMS to 98. 
It seems to work, although the network itself is managed by Upstart and
cannot be configured via this tool.

[SlimDevices: Unix] Xubuntu 14.04 startup sequence of LMS

2014-10-01 Thread zordaz

I am running LMS 7.8.0 on a Xubuntu 14.04 server installation and am I
having an issue with the startup sequence of the network and LMS.
LMS, by default on my system, starts before the network interfaces.
Therefore LMS is not able to log into mysqueezebox.com automatically.
This means that I am not able to listen to Internet Radio.

The network interfaces of my server are managed by NetworkManager and I
don't want to change that. As a workaround I have added a restart of LMS
in /etc/rc.local, but this is not a very nice solution IMHO. 
Is there a better solution for my problem possible?

As far as I understand LMS is using traditional start/stop scripts and
is not using upstart or other init-daemons technics, maybe that
complicates the situation?
